What Did I Ever Do to You cake by Shalee Thompson

Description

This cake began with a pumpkin spice cake with chocolate chips baked in a 10 inch round. After cooling the cake was covered in cream cheese frosting. This was then covered with fondant. After being trimmed and smoothed the fondant was ready to be airbrushed. I started out with a black to begin defining the pattern. After the black I used a white pearl to bring out the lighter areas. I used about 3 other grey, silver, and pearl colors to add depth. I also used a brush to add some texture. While that was drying I worked on the bandaid, mouth, eyes, and tears. These were all made from colored fondant. The cake was delicious and a fun cake to make.
